Polly Gibbons
“a truly exceptional…..talent, possessing a voice of such sizzling intensity and raw emotion you could fry an egg on it”
Jazzwise
Polly Gibbons is one of the most respected and talked about singers of her generation. Since first hitting the UK jazz scene more than 10 years ago, while still in her teens, Polly has developed into a consummate performer with a sultry, distinctive style, as much at home singing tender jazz ballads as she is performing rockin' R&B classics. Nominated Vocalist of the Year by Jazz FM, she has also firmly established herself in the US, with shows in Florida, Boston, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Oklahoma City, Los Angeles and Birdland in NYC and three albums with American label Resonance Records, including her latest ‘All I Can Do’. Polly will be playing at the piano new original material penned during lockdown, and will be joined by her frequent collaborator and co-writer, pianist James Pearson (also the Artistic Director of Ronnie Scott's), bassist Loz Garratt and drummer Saleem Raman. A very old friend (Polly performed her first London gig here, back in the day) it’s with great pleasure that we welcome this remarkable singer back to the 606.
